Henderson's Early Spring Cabbage. 



A sample of the reports we receive 

 about Henderson's Early Spring Cabbage. 



"We bought one packet of your Early Sprung Cabbage 

 last spring and considered them the finest early cabbage 

 we ever grew. They were about five days ahead of the 

 Wakefield."— K. P. APGAR, Winchester, Va. 



"I have heads now of your Early Spring Cabbage 

 that weigh 5 lbs., that were planted eleven weeks ago. 

 Your Early Spring will lake the place of the Wakefield 

 or Charleston with me." 



JOHN CASE, Lexington, Ky. 



HENDERSON'S EARLY SUMMER CABBAGE 



A ROUND, FLAT=HEADED 



EXTRA EARLY 



EVERY HEAD AS UNIFORM 

 AS IF MOULDED 



A SURE AND SOLID HEADER 



Its great value lies in its being a 

 First Early FLAT Cabbage, a type 

 much preferred over pointed heads 

 by vaany people. It has a short 

 stem and only four to' five outside 

 leaves, and these so small that it may 

 be planted twenty-one inches apart. 

 Remembering that this is a first 

 early flat variety, the shape that is 

 so popular, and that it is ready fully 

 a week earlier than any sort like it, 

 its value can be readily appreciated. 

 It is a sure, solid header, always pro- 

 ducing a crop of large, uniform heads 

 which seldom "burst." It is ex- 

 tensively grown in all sections of the 

 country, and is pronounced a great 

 success. There is no Cabbage we 

 know of having a more solid head ; 

 it has also the peculiarity of heading 

 firmly at an early stage in its growth, 

 so that the finest Cabbage, though 

 small, can be obtained long before it 

 has attained its mature size. Quality 

 unequalled. {See cut.) Price, 10c. 

 pkt., 35c. oz., $1.00 J lb., $3.50 lb. 



"Your Early Summer 

 Cabbage far exceeds any- 

 thing you claim for them. 

 They are only a few days 

 later than Wakefield. I 

 had many that weighed H 

 to 16 pounds each. I have 

 been gardening extensively 

 for years and never before 

 saw such fine Early Cab- 

 bage."— G. W. HUNT- 

 LEY, Syracuse. N. Y. 



The Best SECOND Early Cabbage. Large, 

 Round, Flat Heads, 8 to 10 Pounds Each. 



TTIIS peerless variety was named and introduced 

 ■*■ by us years ago ; it is widely known and largely 

 grown. As an ideal second early Cabbage it still 

 holds the palm. It forms large, flat, round, solid 

 heads, weighing usually 8 to 10 lbs. each, though 

 with rich cultivation it often gives 10 to 12-lb. heads. 

 The quality is excellent, tender and sweet. It 

 comes in about ten days later than Early Jersey 

 Wakefield, but is more 

 than double the size. We 

 exercise the greatest 

 care every year in 

 breeding and selecting 

 this variety for seed 

 purposes, so that Hen- 

 derson's Early Sum- 

 mer of to-day will be 

 found a far better sort 

 than when we origi- 

 nally offered it. (See 

 cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 

 30c. oz., 90c. I lb., 

 $2.75 lb.
